Evelyn Pierce, Director of Strategy, and Sebastian Harper, the CEO, have spent a decade working so closely the whole company calls them a married corporate couple. Evelyn knows better—those are just blurred lines, office gossip, and a partnership that ends at the elevator doors. At least that's what she thought.
When she hands in her resignation, Sebastian is blindsided. Evelyn is done with late-night emails, endless all-hands and pretending her feelings are just part of the job. She wants her life back—and some clear lines for a change.
Only she doesn’t expect her cool, controlled boss to turn stubborn, jealous and suddenly very, very personal about losing her… or that walking away from him will be the hardest project she’s ever taken on.
Perfect for readers who crave:
✓ Slow-burn workplace tension that IGNITES
✓ CEO Age Gap Romance
✓ A decade of built-up tension finally breaking
✓ Spicy chemistry with genuine partnership
✓ Boss-employee dynamic done RIGHT

About the author
Aylin Red
Aylin Red writes emotionally intense romance and romantasy full of messy hearts, sharp banter, and characters who love like it might ruin them. When she isn’t plotting slow-burn tension and morally questionable love interests, she’s probably binge-watching K‑dramas or daydreaming new worlds somewhere in Poland.
